    old cr-39

    I think every office ive ever been in has 5 or 6 boxes of old cr-39. What do you do with this stuff? I have a metric ton of cr-39 and SV glass lenses that's taking up a lot of space and I have no idea what to do with it. Any thoughts?

    Buy a new frame and get a pair of cr-39 for free! Only while stocks last!

    Donate to Jacqui at Angel Optical. She is an OB member - send her a PM. She uses these for local people who are financially stressed, and have fallen through the Medicaid cracks.

    I have a veritable museum of old plastic lenses in the finishing lab I work in. 5 decades worth, all the manufacturers (who knew Oklahoma was a bastion of lens casting once upon a time?) I can't bring myself to get rid of them.

    Tint them, edge and insert them into all the old dog frames that you have been hanging on to since 1975. $10.00 each while the supply lasts!

    Such a deal!
